I tried to fix an extra hard drive the other day by swapping out the actuator arm (it came out of other pc with photos and videos) and when I plugged it into my desktop and turned it on the pc froze up and went to a error screen during boot up saying it couldn't fix it. I unplugged the HDD and restarted the desktop and it took twice as long to start (4 min). It's audio was constantly on and sounded like someone scratching a record back and forth every 2 seconds, no audio from music or videos were playing. The sound bar was going up and down with the music but no sound other than scratching.
I re-installed my drive Realtek 6.0.1.8169 but after a restart it still didn't work until I Roll Back Drive then restarted and unplugged the green 3.5 mm jack and now it works. But it's went out twice in 2 days so it's not keeping the setting.
After doing the reinstall for my audio I lost the two USB 3 ports on the back and one USB 3 port on the front of my desktop but all my USB 2 ports are working? I got it fixed once I think by troubleshooting hardware and device but it too keeps going out?
I also ran chkdsk /f /r and sfc /scannow. My only backup is from 2 years ago so I would like to try everything else than that. I did swap graphic card over the weekend and didn't delete the other drive but I read that doesn't matter and it was working okay till I tried to plug the broken HDD in?
I would appreciate any help. I could figure out how to put pic on so I had to add links below.
